100,000 evacuated from Mumbai in India as cyclone makes landfall.

The state of Goa, south of Maharashtra, already received 127 milimeters of torrential rain — about a week's average, the agency said.

Some 200 COVID-19 patients in Mumbai were moved from a field hospital built beneath a tent to another facility to avoid the risk of strong wind gusts, officials said. The cyclone also threatened to worsen prospects for an economic turnaround as a 9-week-long coronavirus lockdown began to ease this week. India has reported more than 200,000 cases and 5,800 deaths due to the virus, and epidemiologists predict that the peak is still weeks away.

Nisarga comes just two weeks after Cyclone Amphan tore through the Bay of Bengal on India’s east coast and battered West Bengal state, killing more than 100 people in India and neighboring Bangladesh.

how come you don’t hear any news on the 77 year old black retired cop that laid in the street dying killed by protesters! Why because he’s a cop and doesn’t deserve the attention!! I’m sick

Let Mumbaikars stay safe.

Isn't this the second cyclone of this season? I think 100 people had died in the first one!!

I think Donald Trunp’s presidency ushered in some Kind of Negative Force that’s destroying the world. 🤔

Has anyone asked WHY ARE THESE BLACKWATER/ ERIC PRINCE 'COPS' outside the White House posing as Military or DC or Local Cops? No badges, Random ass Uniforms? These are the Tough Guys who answered Trumps Call to come to DC to protect his BunkerBoy butt? YallQaeda

Well that don't sound good at all, damn, I don't pray, but I hope for the best for those folks...
